Would you like to be able to do what matters most, no matter what? And would you like to help your clients do the same? If, yes, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT pronounced as one word "act") is for you!

This skill, known as psychological flexibility is at the heart of ACT and has helped it become one of the most researched and most successful so-called third wave psychotherapy.

Using the simple and intuitive ACT matrix model in which they are world-class experts, Benjamin and Sheri will let you explore with the six processes central to ACT: Mindfulness of the Present Moment, Acceptance, Cognitive Defusion, Contact with Values, Committed Action and the Observe Self.

Richly illustrated with clinical examples, experiential exercises and effective clinical strategies, this workshop will bring you up to a level of skill and comprehension of the ACT that will ensure you get the most out of Steven Hayes’s exceptional two-day workshop.

DETAILED SYLLABUS FORTHCOMING

By the end of this workshop, you’ll be able to start using ACT in your clinical practice and apply it in your personal life.

Benjamin and Sheri will also be present to assist you over the whole three days.

CPI is happy to be able to offer a discount of $100 on the price of the full three days should you want to book the whole three days. Places for the three-day package are limited due to the possibility of Steve Hayes’s workshop being sold out as it was when he last came in April 3016.
